Fair use

Educational institutions are certainly allowed, to reproduce copyright texts for learning

purposes for their students.

The fair use clause of the copyright act means that you can only photocopy one chapter from

the book or 10% of the total. However when doing this you need to acknowledge and

reference the source of both the author and publisher. This means students are provided with

the necessary information to purchase the full book or borrow it from a library.

(A good reminder, in a visual storm.)

Visual plagiarism

Plagiarism is lifting someone else’s work without their permission. You cannot copy and

paste someone’s work and try to pretend it is your own work. However you can copy the

work by writing it in your own words. Also if you copied a quote from somewhere you need

to give reference from where you got that quote from. As a result of this to avoid plagiarism

you need to link back to the persons work or article by referencing the person’s name and

source material.

(What, who, when)

encourages plagiarism as it is very easy to do. This problem has been taken to happen more within schools.

Student’s use of the internet these days for research and educational purposes is an ongoing source of debate.

Some educators say that it is easy for students to cut and paste of the internet rather than developing their own

thoughts and ideas within their work.

In my opinion I would say that s tudents within schools should be taught and reminded of the fact that plagiarism

is a disciplinary act. However students within colleges and Universities should know that if they plagiarise

within their work, they could get disqualified or fail part of the module.
